Here are some of my articles on Peter Higgs, the search for the Higgs particle and the occasional interview about Massive...

4th July 2012. Writing in the Guardian about the Higgs boson discovery and the headache it will cause the Nobel physics committee.

3rd July 2012. The day before the big announcement at CERN, I recorded this video at the Guardian explaining the Higgs boson, using a bag of sugar, some ping pong balls, and a tray from the office canteen.
